I felt totally awesome all day yesterday until we were just about to leave the grocery store later that evening. Then sharp pain in my lower back on the left side. Shrugged it off, got home, took some tylenol and made dinner. All the while, the pain hung around while nausea kicked in. Took more tylenol, nothing. Went to bed early in an attempt to sleep it off.

Woke up feeling ok, shortly after my shower the pain comes back. Now the feelings of nausea are like, rolling through me. Feel crappy but ok-ish one moment, want to vomit the next, starts to go away, comes back. As long as I don't move at all in any way, shape, or form, the back pain seems to go away a bit but not by much.

Now to make it through a 10 hour shift and hope this shit goes away on it's own. Leerrrrrroooooooooooooooooyyyyyy....

Fucking annoying as all hell.

Actual back pain, or does it feel more internal? Like in your kidneys or something? I only ask because those were my first symptoms of what I had.

Back to the thread now. So... grandmother died 4 days ago. She was in great pain on her last week so, I'm kinda happy she passed away in the end. Anyway... my mother, who knows that I can edit some sweet videos, promised my grandfather I would make a video with photos of them, memories etc... Yeah, as if it wasn't so hard till now. Thanks, mom.

To be honest, I'm terrible at describing pain but I suppose it could have been internal-ish. It wasn't like a normal soreness... I don't think it was kidneys since it spread up my back.

It went away for a bit earlier today around 11am or so but came back after I ate lunch. I've taken more tylenol due to the back pain (now it's in my upper/middle back) and I've started to get dizzy with slightly blurred vision.

I don't plan on going to the doctor so hopefully this will go away soon. Until then I'm going to try and take it easy.

It seems to be progressing quite a bit... I hope so too, for your sake.

So everytime I reboot my laptop, Asus live update wants to update the BIOS. But everytime I tell it to update it it just downloads it and won't install it. So I download it manually and looked up how to install it and do so accordingly, but now my laptop won't boot up. I called up where I bought it (best buy), and they said I could mail it in so they can look into it which I don't mind doing, but that'll have to wait til Monday if I can scrap up enough money to send it out. Otherwise its gonna have to wait til Wednesday when I know I'll have enough. Worst comes to worst, I'll have to get a new laptop which won't be til next month at the least.

/edit: looking further into it, it appears I have bricked my laptop; however, people have brought their laptop in to get the BIOS chip replaced and it seemed to have fix the problem. I just gotta call the place I'm sending my laptop to on Monday to see if they would be able to do that.

My job is bullshit. A full array of workers for one day should total fourteen people. Today, we had four. The day before that, five. And so on and so on - for months, now. I have forty hours this week, despite being part-time*, and they're being careful not to do it multiple weeks in a row so that I can't cause a fuss about it. And the scheduling, my fucking god the scheduling... on the newest schedule, I work 6:30-11PM closing one night, and then have to open the joint at 7 AM the next day. Not to mention I'll be doing both of those alone, as opposed to having two or three people to help, like I'm fucking supposed to have. Is a paycheck really worth this?

*someone's going to mention, "Well, at least you're getting hours," so I'll get this rant out of the way. I figure that the benefit of having a part-time job is free time to pursue my own interests. The benefit of working full-time is having company benefits. Therefore, working full-time hours, getting no benefits, and sacrificing my free time is a complete load of shit.

Stress over stupid shit I have no control over. Some times things don't work out the way you expect or want them to. All you can do is move on through it and hope for the best for all that are involved. Maybe in the future things will turn around and something will change. Right now, I can't deal with this shit so I wont. Here's to tomorrow and hopefully getting enough sleep for work in the morning...

Like the AMV .Org App? Think about donating to help me make it better.

Yue, you'd better go to see the doctor if the pain doesn't stop, seriously. Hope it will get ok soon, though, and that it's nothing serious.

Spoiler :

I need hugs. It sound hilarious but I seriously have a NEED of hugs. Or just anything. I mean, I might not seem to be like this online but in reality I always do my best to be cheerful, to keep smiling and just to bring happiness or laugh or just be something positive. I hate people around me being down, I hate seeing anyone cry or sad and it always makes me feel somehow responsible. That's why I try my hardest to ALWAYS smile and laugh etc. There really is one person... or maybe 2 that I really know I can turn to when I'm down though I still don't want to bother them cause I know how it feels when someone next to you is sad and I don't want them to feel this way because of me. Honestly, even if I say what's wrong to someone in the internet, which is WAY easier, it's never enough. And I think I know what brings me kinda down lately. It's not the fact that I'm in love and blarghblargh, it's not the fact that I actually have some school/family/health problems but a lack of touch. Seriously, it might sound kinda weird but I need a touch. I dunno why but I've never hugged friends to say 'hi' if I see them everyday, I've never just held hands for no reason, I've never kissed anyone on the cheek just to greet and I don't know why. Maybe that comes from my house when no one ever says 'I love you', no one ever hugs or anything. And it makes me feel so lonely. I've also never said 'I love you' to anyone with a real meaning of it. Just never. I just wanna have someone that will give me a warm hug from time to time, who will just pat my head occasionally, who will just play with fingers or just... anything.
